And by "this boy" I mean Chris Lowell, and by "crappy show" I mean Private Practice. I had high hopes for that show, but it's pretty stupid, yet I keep watching in the hopes of them giving Chris Lowell something awesome to do.

Rhys Ifans has been cast as Xenophilius Lovegood in the final Harry Potter movie. I'm not sure how I feel about this, actually, mostly because I pictured Xenophilius Lovegood to be a bit older. But I like Rhys Ifans, so I'll take it.

It's nice that Snape is getting a poster, even if that means they're kinda giving away who the Half-Blood Prince is to the people who haven't read the books. (And oops, sorry if I just spoiled it for anyone, but really? Why haven't you read the books?) Ron looks awesome in his Quidditch gear, and Hermione is looking a little too skinny but otherwise very pretty. I'm so excited about this movie.

According to Rob Thomas, there won't be a Veronica Mars movie any time soon. Might this have something to do with the fact that almost everyone from the show is pretty busy right now? Read all about it at Pop Wrap.

Who is this band?! They're called Chester French, and I learned about them from reading Mark Hoppus' blog. I need to hear more! Also, it's kind of awesome that a chick is beating the crap out of these guys in the video.

Did you know that there's this, like, New York vs. LA thing where New Yorkers hate Angelinos because they (we, if I'm being honest, because no matter where I am, LA is my home) "don't have any fashion sense" or something? Well, because I read a lot of blogs, this is something I've learned. But I'll tell you what, I'll take my LA "lack of fashion sense" over being a snobby New Yorker who likes Alexander McQueen because he's this totally famous designer without admitting to what is actually the truth: these clothes are atrocious. (But Best Week Ever is absolutely hilarious about it).

Sure, the 1990 mini-series version of Stephen King's excellent book 'It' wasn't great, but at least it was 4 hours long, allowing for proper plot development. Now there's talk of a big screen remake, which, besides being "updated" to present time, will also surely have to edit out lots of information about the characters and their history as well as the town's history. Do not want!

Also, Tim Curry was absolutely perfect as Pennywise; just terrifying and evil. They'll never find someone better. I still can't look at him and not see the clown make-up.

I made a biiiig mistake by Google image searching just 'Stephen King's It' to find a picture for this post, BTW. More Tim Curry as Pennywise pictures than I should ever see. I almost cried. Fucking clowns!!

Someday I'll just have to completely cave and admit that JJ Abrams achieved the impossible: he made me like Star Trek. A Star Trek that stars Chris So Fucking Beautiful It Should Be A Crime Pine and Simon Is Always Fucking Awesome Pegg. And that day will be the day I see this movie, I'm guessing. Because really, how ridiculously awesome is that trailer?

And who's Number 1? That's right: Jensen Ackles. As if there were any doubt. I pretty much agree with the top 10, other than Mario Lopez, who I find gross as a human being, and Milo Ventimiglia only because he came in above Jared Padalecki. Jared is totes hotter than Milo.

I honestly didn't know he was funny. But he is. And also: hot. Oh, and talented. I always sort of forget about him until I'm watching something that he's in and I'm struck with admiration. He's awesome.

Here he is on Jimmy Fallon's show.

By the way, I think Jimmy is doing a great job. I might be biased because I fucking adore him, but seriously, he's doing well. Watch the show. Drew Barrymore is on tonight! Oh, and go see Watchmen. I plan on seeing it this weekend, hopefully.

The trailer for Public Enemies has finally been released, and it looks awesome. Not that there was any doubt considering it stars Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Billy Crudup and Marion Cotilliard and was directed by Michael Mann.

Watch it here.

Interesting fact: John Dillinger set fire to the Hotel Congress in Tucson, Arizona, a fact I learned when I was hanging out there a few years ago waiting for a concert to start across the street at Club Congress. That hotel is creepy and totally haunted.

OMG. A Dalek was found submerged in a pond in the UK. I know it's just a prop from the show, probably left over from the old Doctor Who of the '70's, but damn, how cool must it have been to find that. For a moment, they must have thought "Holy shit, we're doomed." HAHAHA.

Pop Wrap has a good interview with my TV Boyfriend of '06/'07, Nate Corddry. Nate can now be seen on United States of Tara on Showtime, though his character is creepy and weird. He's still got that adorable face, and I'm just happy to see him on TV again.

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon starts tonight. His first guests include Robert De Niro, Justin Timberlake and Van Morrison. Not bad for the first show. Personally, I'm hoping to see some Barry Gibb Talk Show shenanigans between Jimmy and JT.

About Me

I've been referred to as a walking IMDB. It's been said that I know way too much about Pop Culture, which might be true, but I don't care. You can never know too much about anything, even the silly things.
I'm also a really good cook.
